JUN 21982Boor 49'F ��3 Lengthy conversation took place regarding the funds of $70,000 set aside in the original amount for jail renovation. Additional monies will be needed to accomplish items such as heating, ventilation, air conditioning, - insufficient lighting, and a fire escape; hopefully, those costs will be defined for the Board by the first meeting in July. Commissioner Wodtke inquired about the account being overdrawn by $8,300. ` Finance Director Barton explained that as of this time, the funds have not been over -expended; however, the projected amount that will be expended when all the bids are in should be over $8,300. After more discussion, it was determined that a budget amendment was not needed at this time. a Motion was made by Commissioner Wodtke, seconded by Commissioner Lyons, that the Board authorize the work to be performed as itemized in the May 25, 1982 memorandum from Mr. Davis; give permission to draw on the funds set aside in the original account of $70,000; and once bids are received at a later date, come back to the Board and request funding to do the contract work. Sheriff Dobeck suggested that his department would -not make any purchases or repairs, but instead would turn this procedure completely over to Mr. Lynn Williams, County Superintendent of Buildings & Grounds. Community Services Director Thomas interjected that they were trying to straighten out the accounting procedures as problems arise when there is a renovation program of this type - it is difficult to determine what is renovation and what is maintenance. A brief discussion ensued. The Chairman called for the question. It was voted on and carried unanimously.
